The client, Hassan, operates a commercial olive grove in Tunis, the capital of Tunisia. As a signature high-value crop of the Mediterranean, the quality and yield of his olives directly determine the farm’s profitability. However, the increasing frequency of hailstorms in the region cast a significant shadow over the upcoming harvest season. Mr. Hassan urgently needed a supplier who could meet his specific dimension requirements and provide reliable protection when it mattered most.
The Challenge:
- Non-Standard Technical Demand: The orchard’s layout required 8.4-meter wide hail netting, a dimension far exceeding the standard width of conventional products, posing a significant challenge to a supplier’s manufacturing and technical capabilities.
- The Ultimate Test of Product Quality: Before investing a substantial amount, Hassan had to be 100% confident that the product’s strength, durability, and UV resistance could withstand the region’s harsh weather.
- Uncertainty of Investment Return: For any agricultural investment, the primary concern is its value. Hassan needed assurance that this investment would deliver a tangible economic return in the foreseeable future.
EyouAgro’s Solution:
EyouAgro’s Business Manager, Nicole, guided the client through a clear, phased process, resolving each concern to turn a complex inquiry into a successful partnership.
- Step 1: Building Trust with a Professional Plan & Samples. In response to the 8.4-meter width requirement, Nicole immediately provided a professional splicing solution. At the same time, she patiently guided the client through the international sample delivery process, allowing him to touch and test our product firsthand. The high-quality sample served as the first cornerstone of trust.
- Step 2: From Trust to an Order. After Hassan confirmed the sample quality, he confidently placed an order for the first phase of his project: 15 hectares of custom hail netting. Our factory’s production team utilized advanced splicing techniques to ensure every roll was both wide and robust, and the delivery was completed on schedule.
- Step 3: From Installation to Realized Value. After the product arrived, Hassan’s team smoothly completed the installation with guidance from EyouAgro. Shortly thereafter, an unexpected hailstorm struck the region.
The Result & Value:
After the hailstorm, the value of the EyouAgro solution was demonstrated in the most direct and powerful way.
- Perfect Protection: While surrounding unprotected olive groves were severely hit with fallen fruit littering the ground, the 15 hectares covered by EyouAgro’s hail netting were completely unharmed.
- Significant Economic Return: This successful protection saved Hassan from at least 30% of potential harvest loss, proving the immense value of his investment in a single weather event.
- A Confirmed Long-Term Partnership: Having witnessed the product’s outstanding performance, Hassan expressed his sincere gratitude to Nicole and confirmed his plan to install EyouAgro netting on his remaining orchards in the next procurement season.
